Ms. CEO is His Bodyguard - Chapter 47
Words after words flew out her mouth fluently. Each word was enunciated clearly without the slightest mistake, even the technical terms were spoken impeccably.
Wang Rouxi was after all the CEO-to-be of Wang Empire Estates, it is imperative that she had plenty of experience in dealing with such matters.
Reading through the annual report, Wang Rouxi’s brows wrinkled ever so slightly as she noticed a few mistakes.
The perfectionist side of her was screaming for her to do something about it.
Although it was not supposed to be included in her job description as a bodyguard, she believed that she was partly to blame for Xia Jiannan’s inability to do this task as the CEO of the Xia Corporation.
And since it was only a slight effort on her part, Wang Rouxi decided to kindly point out these few mistakes to Secretary Cheng.
But there’s a problem.
Xia Jiannan was still leaning on her shoulder!
If she was to move excessively right now, Xia Jiannan might get disturbed in his sleep.
Looking back at how he had been unwell since yesterday that he was with her and until now that he was leaning on her shoulder weakly, Wang Rouxi did not have the heart to disturb him.
It was apparent that Xia Jiannan’s body had not completely recovered yet.
‘Should she just edit the document directly?’ Wang Rouxi pondered.
Up front, Secretary Cheng was unaware of Wang Rouxi’s dilemma.
Through the rearview mirror, he watched as his usually expressionless boss slept peacefully in Di Yi’s arms.
Secretary Cheng was happy.
This was probably the first time in so many years that he had seen Xia Jiannan with such tranquility.
He would not ask for more. Secretary Cheng was already contended to see the relaxed expression on Xia Jiannan’s face.
But in his many years of serving under the Xia Family, Secretary Cheng could remember that the First Young Master hated physical intimacy.
Xia Jiannan never liked someone invading his personal space.
Just how did that young man manage to do it?
Aside from Xia Jinhu who seemed to enjoy getting beaten up by his older brother, others would definitely need a lot of guts before they would dare touch a single hair on Xia Jiannan’s head.
This made Secretary Cheng look at Di Yi in a new light.
How much courage must one have to dare do what Di Yi had done?
Well, if Secretary Cheng just knew that this courageous young man was the one who stole Xia Jiannan’s first kiss, he would probably not have thought that way.
Looking at the pale-faced youth and his First Young Master cuddled at the backseat, Secretary Cheng suddenly thought of something absurd.
Oddly enough, they looked quite fitting together!
Di Yi’s small mouth would constantly open and close as he kept on reading, his voice creating a melody, which sounded as though he was singing lullabies for Xia Jiannan.
It was already known that Wang Rouxi’s voice was pleasing to the ears. And although she had altered it a bit to match Di Yi’s identity, the snowflake-like quality of her voice could still be heard.
Even Secretary Cheng could not help but close his eyes in rapture as he listened to her melodious voice.
Her reading was neither too fast nor too slow. It was just right.
When Wang Rouxi finished reading through the report, they were still halfway towards the Xia Corporation’s main company building.
Gazing out the window, the scenery of the lush greenery fleeting past them was reflected on Wang Rouxi’s clear and indifferent eyes.
It was not until the scenery changed into that of tall, high-rise buildings that Wang Rouxi retracted her gaze and was reminded of the report in her hand.
“Mr. Cheng,” Wang Rouxi called out suddenly.
Judging from the pace he was delivering his report to Xia Jiannan, Wang Rouxi believed that Secretary Cheng would still have ample time to go through the edited report once more before they reach their destination.
However, before she could hand the tablet over to Secretary Cheng, there was a slight movement on her right side.
Glancing down at the sleeping Xia Jiannan, Wang Rouxi immediately noticed that he was starting to feel uncomfortable with their position.
A glaring frown was etched on Xia Jiannan’s forehead.
Without looking at Secretary Cheng, Wang Rouxi passed the tablet to him and spoke, “Please forgive me for my presumptuousness, Mr. Cheng. I have noticed some minor errors and decided to correct them. You can check through the report to verify.”
After that, Wang Rouxi did not bother about Secretary Cheng any longer, her eyes filled with worry was focused on Xia Jiannan.
As though holding something extremely fragile, Wang Rouxi carefully adjusted Xia Jiannan’s head to lay on her lap. Her fair and slender fingers smoothed the frown on his flawless face and massaged his temples tenderly.
Xia Jiannan was very likely to be the only person who was privileged to receive Wang Rouxi’s personal care.
